"Hahaha, can children from the lower realm really become this close to us?"

"Hestia, our king! Hestia, queen of evil!!!"

Ultimately, the Familia are nothing more than toys for them to maintain their own entertainment; everything in the lower realm is just a game and should not be taken seriously.

No matter how chaotic things get, to them it's just a new version of the game with a new mode added.

As for the fate of their offspring in the lower realms? In a world where life is cyclical, that's not important.

The gods rejoiced, screamed, loathed, and delighted at this chaos.

Some of them were angry and condemned Suzuki Satoru's atrocities, while others cheered and rejoiced at his actions.

Finally, Suzuki Satoru completed his final product.

"I, I, what happened to me...?"

Hyacinthus's last remaining consciousness blurred amidst the excruciating pain. He saw his arms transform into giant claws covered in scales, with halos of light swirling between his five fingers, while his lower body had turned into a thick serpent's tail, its scales reflecting a light that was both sacred and blasphemous, leaving charred marks on the ground.

Subsequently, his personal will was completely swallowed up.

The sun god, Nie, slowly raised its serpent head, its golden wings suddenly unfurling. The light from its left wing scorched the surrounding trees to charcoal, while the chill from its right wing instantly froze flowing blood. A hissing sound, a mixture of chicken and snake, escaped its throat, and its seven pairs of pupils locked onto the distant labyrinthine city, where Apollo's presence drove it mad!

Suzuki Satoru took a half step back, admiring his creation. The serpentine body of this colossal beast was covered with stitched folds, and writhing blood vessels could be seen beneath every inch of its skin. The sacred light and the twisted form created a nauseating harmony.

“Very good,” a satisfied smile curved his lips beneath the mask. He was quite pleased with his creation.

Perhaps, for his purposes, this was a failed experiment. But he had already verified in his hands that divine power could indeed flow through the bloodline of the clan system.

Hyacinthus's failure should perhaps be attributed to his weakness. If he had been a higher-level Familia instead of a Level 3, he might have been able to bear more divine power and transform into a true divine being instead of a failed divine abomination.

He had already achieved his greatest goal for this trip. After extracting enough samples from this divine abomination, he would take the remaining divine blood back to the Main God Space, then redeem it and try it out in his own world.

He found a new path to power.

It's time to retreat.

As for Guts and the others, Suzuki Satoru could only apologize in his heart, but in the end, they were not on the same path.

He glanced at Lily, who was deathly pale beside him; she was already wearing the Reincarnation Watch. Suzuki Satoru wanted to take her away because he needed a Familia sample, and her magic was quite useful.

Initiate the teleportation; they will soon reach the evacuation point and leave.

"Roar!!!!"

The abomination roared deafeningly, its golden, deformed wings whipping up a storm that swirled blood mist into the sky, creating a bizarre spectacle of the sun and moon shining together. It began to writhe its serpentine tail as it moved forward, leaving burning fissures in its wake, frost and flames intertwining to form a trail of destruction.

Looking at this twisted, deformed yet sacred behemoth, before leaving, Suzuki Satoru, as its creator, thought for a moment and then gave it a name.

"Then, I'll call you Python."

The named abomination, with wings and snakeskin, shrieked as it hurtled toward Orario.

The monster is going to devour its own god.

......

"You know about the Supreme God?"

Qiu Hai looked at Uranus with great interest and asked curiously.

"I'm curious, are you the Uranus of this world, or the Uranus I know?"

One is merely the guild god in this light novel world, while the other is the first generation of god-kings in Greek mythology.

“Both,” Uranus said calmly.

"The gods of this world can also be said to be the same, but at this moment, they are merely projections and fragments."

“Our essence exists in a distant source, and our existence spreads throughout countless worlds with the sowing of myths. Those are both fragments and part of our essence.”

Although the language was somewhat obscure and difficult to understand, Qiu Hai understood the meaning behind Uranus's words.

In the infinite multiverse, the worlds that the supreme god can access all seem to be those where human stories are the main characters, and in these worlds, the existence of mythology is a more sublime concept.

Myths are among the oldest stories of humankind. And perhaps for this reason, countless literary works that followed have always touched upon these myths to varying degrees.

As for gods with the same name, their existence can be seen as either independent or as a unified whole.

As Uranus said, source and projection are both each other and can also be one.

You can apply the idea of ​​"one certificate for life" to these entities.

Similarly, after Qiu Hai became the main god, in a sense, he also achieved a special, unique, and multifaceted state.

"So it seems we've offended the great deity many times." Akihi shrugged.

“It’s alright, the projection and the source are not the same,” Uranus said calmly.

The source stream can become the projection, but the projection cannot be the source stream.

"So—" Qiu Hai changed the subject, narrowing his eyes as he spoke.

"Then how does the great Heavenly Father view a supreme deity like me and my reincarnation?"

"You are the locusts and plagues of the multiverse," Uranus said bluntly.

"The Reincarnators, with the Supreme God at their core, are rampaging through the myriad realms, burning, killing, and plundering without restraint. You and those behind you cannot tolerate any stories of the different. You only tolerate the stench of narrow-minded and insane racism and extreme prejudice!"

"The way you're saying it makes me sound like a bad guy," Qiu Hai said, feigning sadness.

“You…you are indeed very special.” Uranus gazed at the autumn sea and said softly.

“Generally, a node like you cannot possess a self, and beings like you were wiped out in that war. You are exceptionally special compared to all the main gods…”

"Could you tell me the specifics? The one you're at war with?" Qiu Hai asked casually.

"You don't know?" Uranus looked at him with a half-smile.

"The Multiverse Human Mutual Aid and Love Organization's sole purpose is to ensure the prosperity of humanity throughout all the heavens and myriad worlds, and to work together to create a better tomorrow for mankind."

Qiu Hai recited this passage, which was included in the main god system, as if it were a memorized text.

"you do not believe?"

"Generally speaking, when an organization only talks about ideal organizational principles, I basically assume that half of what it says should be understood in reverse."

"Hehehehe, you're right, half of what you said is indeed nonsense." Uranus burst into laughter.

"But as for which half, I think you know in your heart! But as for what you want to know from me..."

Uranus paused, then opened his mouth.

Qiu Hai couldn't hear what he was saying at all, nor could he understand what he was saying. Only after he finished speaking did Qiu Hai suddenly realize what was going on.

"So... I can't say it?"

“I told you, you simply cannot know,” Uranus said calmly.

"All information about those things throughout the multiverse has been blocked; they call it 'harmony,' and I cannot provide any information about them."

"But the only thing I can tell you for sure is that you are more special than any of the gods. If they knew about you, they would do anything to take you away."

Chapter 33: 137. The State of the World

Qiu Hai knew he was an exceptionally lucky person, but he also genuinely believed that his existence was not absolutely unique.

At least he knew that there were other gods, and he also knew that the gods had once existed as a united organization that liked to exploit the world to the fullest extent to supply itself.

Of course, the messages left within the main god all spoke well of them, about the human community, about a better tomorrow, and about harmony and love for countless universes.

Qiu Hai didn't believe a single word.

What a joke! Doesn't he understand the other gods or even himself?

Although Qiu Hai favors the reincarnators who value order and goodness, he turns a blind eye to the evil deeds committed by his reincarnators in order to earn reward points.

As long as the rules are not broken and taboos are not violated, Qiu Hai will always turn a blind eye to those who do evil.

At most, after accumulating too much karma, we'll just give him a "Final Destination" to loosen his skin.

Even so, he can still be considered one of the most 'kind' gods.

After all, based on the information he knew, the kind of misdeeds that the gods liked to do, even if Qiu Hai did it once, would be far more sinful than anything else in ten thousand years.

The act of shattering an entire plane to transform into primal energy to nourish oneself is something that most of the main gods have done, and many times over.

They call it high efficiency.

That's why Qiu Hai didn't believe a single word of what was said above.

What kind of multiverse, mutual help and love among humans? Is your way of mutual help and love to shatter and absorb others along with their worlds?

Given that the predecessor of his profession was a group that loved to engage in such cruel and ruthless CS behavior, Qiu Hai would never trust them.

Of course, this does not mean that Qiu Hai will trust Uranus in front of him.

"Hmm... In that case, I think we might be able to establish some level of contact and cooperation?"

Qiu Hai tapped his chin with his fingers and looked at Uranus with a smile.

"How about we use this world as a buffer zone for our communication and interaction? It just so happens that you've completely suppressed 'Gaia' here."

If the underground city where the Father Uranus resides has this one will, then who could be the 'mother' who can be pressed beneath the Father?

The answer to this riddle is practically written all over its face.

The light of the plane, the soul of the world, the will of Gaia—whatever you call her, it doesn't matter. The very foundation of this world's existence rests on this: the gods descend, suppressing the world.

As for the story revolving around Bell Craney, it is actually insignificant, because in the end, the only boss that can appear in this novel is the so-called black dragon of calamity.

and then?

Can this so-called black dragon of calamity devour the gods? Can it defeat even a single unsealed deity?

The story that the final boss can actually be easily killed by an NPC in the starting village is just a footnote to this whole thing.

Why should we cooperate with you?

"Because perhaps we may have the same problems to solve, and I consider myself a supreme god of great order and goodness," Qiu Hai said with an air of righteousness.

"Order? Goodness?" Uranus pointed to the sky.

"The reincarnators you released have just created a divine abomination that intends to take over the main stage of this world."

"That only means he's a ruthless and ambitious reincarnator," Qiu Hai said calmly.

"And so what if he ruins the story? Don't tell me you can't turn all of this into a 'unique state' that never happened, or that you can see countless worlds happening simultaneously, right?"

In the countless parallel worlds of a universe, there are generally four 'states'.

The unique state is a 'story' with a completely fixed and orthodox beginning, direction, and ending—a timeline that can never be altered and is the fundamental core of the entire universe's existence.

The standard state is a deviation from the orthodox approach to the 'story', but it still revolves around the direction of the unique state. It may have various endings, but it will eventually lead to a result that is not too different.

The best analogy for the standard state is the 'Demon Slayer' world that Akimi previously created. It became a complete mess due to the interference of the reincarnators, but ultimately it led to an outcome that was not much different from the original ending.

A deflection state, on the other hand, is equivalent to the story going completely off course and into an unforeseen situation. The story completely collapses, the storyline is utterly destroyed, and such a world usually ends in complete destruction.

Just like the abomination on Akimi's head created by Suzuki Satoru, if it were allowed to devour Apollo, the result would probably be that it would blow up the entire lower realm, causing the storyline and the stage to be completely destroyed. This is the ending of the deflection state.

As for the final pseudo-state, it can be basically understood as a world that does not exist in the original storyline at all. It cannot be defined as a part of a parallel world. In FGO, it would be a strange world that doesn't even qualify as a Lostbelt.

The four 'states' constitute all the conditions of the multiverse. Generally, the world lines intervened by the main gods either move towards the standard state or the deflected state, while the situation of maintaining a unique state also exists.

As for the pseudo-state? Basically, entering this state is equivalent to being shattered by the main god and turned into source energy.

There are many ways to correct timelines; when the Light of the Dimensions is powerful enough, they can even reset the world line themselves. If not, they will use other means to correct it to a standard state that is close to the unique state.

In this world, the light of the planes is completely suppressed by Uranus, and the gods have taken over power. Whether the timeline will be determined depends on Uranus's will.

Of course—Akihime could fix it, but he didn't need to.

"Besides, the help I've provided to the 'protagonist' of this world is enough for him to deal with the problems mentioned above."

"Akiha" refers to Bell. The abomination created by Suzuki Satoru is a problem, but as long as it is dealt with before he eats Apollo, it will be a minor issue.

However, once he devours Apollo, the world will immediately enter a 'biased state', and the demon skin that seizes Apollo's divine power will easily cleanse the entire lower realm!

Qiu Hai wouldn't actively interfere, but as the main god, he certainly didn't like the idea of ​​fishing in a thirsty pond.

"A hero? Ha, in that case, I'll give it a push too."

Uranus slightly raised his hand, and the next moment, a barely perceptible tremor suddenly emanated from beneath Orario's feet.

He is no longer Uranus of this world, so he doesn't care about the responsibility of suppressing the underground city.

The Heavenly Father and Qiu Hai exchanged a glance, but did not continue to discuss cooperation; everything was understood without words.
